#halstonintro

HELLLLOOO FRIENDS! for those of you who don’t know me, i’m bec and i play gemma but i am here today to introduce you to my new bb amara! SOOOOO...

- amara was born and raised in chicago

- she is one of three siblings. she is also the middle child, along with a younger sister and older brother

- she always had an outgoing personality, ever since she was lil. v much into theatrics and putting on shows

- her parents were v strict growing up, but she never resented them for that or anything? she just??? followed the rules

- dating was always out of the picture. she actually rarely thought about boys.

- however when she was about 15/16 years old, amara realized she had a crush on her best friend? who happened to be a girl??? #JINKIES #GAYPANIC

- she ignored the feelings for a long ass time and just denied it, thinking it was only admiration but of course there was way more beyond it

- after graduating high school, amara went to college and got a degree in business. she ended up becoming a real estate agent and??? it was just meant for her tbh

- she moved out of her parents place but still lived in chicago, taking pride in her work and hooking up with women in secret

- as time went on her parents were proud of her success and work, but?? they kinda started pushing her to find a husband and “settle down” ??? 

- she did actually end up meeting a man because long story short her father’s co-worker had a son around the same age and blahblahblah

- amara’s worst fear was slowly becoming a reality? however, instead of putting everything to a stop right away she just gives into her parents wishes and spends time with this man

- on the day their engagement was supposed to be official, homegirl panicked and probs cancelled the whole thing off. when her parents demanded a reason, instead of telling the truth she just insisted it wasn’t the right time 

- her parents were humiliated and embarrassed and basically cut ties with her? told her they would speak to her again when she felt ready to move on with the engagement.  however, her siblings stood by her side.

- amara knew she would never be ready. she started feeling isolated and empty in chicago so on a whim she started researching other places to live and wow halston happened to be one of those places!!

SO AMARA has lived in halston for about 2 years now. her parents still aren’t speaking to her which is Hard but she has accepted it. she is still a real estate agent and loves her job sm???

she’s actually a huge sweetheart but can have a sassy side ofc but mostly she’s just a Big Lesbian bb who wants to be loved? 

first things first: he is graysons fraternal twin brother. the two were separated when they were young by the foser care system, and frankly, know nothing besides the fact that they each have a sibling out there. 

since he was young, sawyer was always the back of the class kid. he wasn’t called on and barely looked at once. he easily mingled not the crowd and he liked it that way. no one was watching you. no one tried to get to know you. he liked being a fly on the wall ; knowing what was going on without being involved.

he’d bounced around from foster home to foster home, per the system. it wasn’t as many as some other kids, but he’d been in more than he could count on one hand for a multitude of reasons. 

eventually, it got old and sawyer wanted out. but where was he going to go? by now he was in one of the bigger cities in the state, so he decided his best bet at 13 was to run away. don’t all kids do something like that at some point? maybe, but sawyer actually stuck to his word.

that same night he ventured into the big city was when he met the person who would become his true best friend and the only person he could consider family: allie. allie then introduced him to what she called her ragtag group of kids. they were a group of runaways who were kind of like a street family. 

eventually, allie and sawyer started to grow up. they got jobs and began to move into their own apartment in santa monica. it wasn’t a bad way to live, but it always felt a bit abnormal since he didn’t finish highschool or go to college like most kids his age did.

about a year or two ago, allie confided in him that he was pregnant. the babies father was a one night stand she knew they could raise the baby together ( in a baby daddy-esque type situation ). sawyer knew next to nothing about kids, but this was his best god damn friend. he would rather die than try to help her out.

ten months ago leah marie nillson was born. all seemed well for a while. it wasn’t until ( death tw ) allie was killed in a car accident that sawyer really woke the fuck up and realized that he had to take care of this kid. she wasn’t his, biologically, but he still felt like she was his kid.

realizing that he couldn’t afford living in santa monica any longer, sawyer moved them to halston. it was here that he got a job at tiffany’s as a bartender and is working on getting his ged while taking care of leah.

it’s hard as shit, y’all. he is genuinely so exhausted that it’s gonna kill him i swear

his secret is that he’s looking for his bio family. more specifically, he’s looking for his sibling: gray. it’s starting to piece together the puzzle of where exactly he comes from.

will kill for his daughter. he literally calls her his daughter. he lives and breathes for her

his url is literally so fitting. either ur his best friend or you don’t know him. halstons very own cryptid is here

not very nice. has a tempter like no other. “who we hitting?” is common. prepare for maximum impact to the face

some wc’s maybe ?

roommate: must be kid friendly & 21+, at least in sawyers book. he just needs help splitting rent and bills with somebody. 

previous foster siblings: kiddos who were in the same foster homes he was.

Kendra was the youngest of her and her siblings. She is no longer in contact with them as they shunned her when she came out of the closet.

Prom night her junior year was not a good one for Kendra. She ended up getting pregnant by the only man she ever loved but even then didn’t realize it until it was too late, that it was a more platonic love.

She gave the baby up for adoption and came out as gay shortly after. That’s when her entire family basically erased her existence.

she’s a sweetheart. literally protects anyone and everyone. while she’s not quick to open up, she still is constantly trying to be nice to anyone and everyone.

she loves her kids and her wife more than anything.

she’s full on gay. no doubt about it.

hi babies!! meet my lovely lil sassy queen, vanessa lance-hill!!! here’s a tad bit about her, that i’ve come up with so far:

vanessa’s never been much of a scholastic person, so when she graduated high school, she made a deal with her parents that she’d try out a local community college

she’s two years in and should’ve completed an associate’s degree by now (or at least be close to completing it) but v has procrastinated and not put 100% into her studies

just this past spring, v decided to make a youtube channel -- mostly for makeup tutorials, clothing brand reviews, hauls, etc -- she never expected it to grow as fast as it did, though

v told a little white lie to her family that she’s taking classes online this year. this allow her to spend more time working on her videos. she’s already gotten a few sponsors and hopes to get more! she’s just opened up a po box to receive gifts from fans and products to test/review on her channel

vanessa is extremely intelligent - but can be very selfish

she’s very close to her family, especially her brother ... except for her little secret

*tw: stalking i might eventually have a plot where her safety is threatened by one of her fans being a little too into her

wanted connections

friends -- ride or die, good/bad influence, childhood friends, friends from high school, youtuber friends

romance -- exes (she’s gonna have quite a few, fwb, crush, unrequited love)

if you have any other ideas, feel free to msg me!!

new character wanted connection:

ANSEL ELG0RT, 23, HE/HIM  —— hey, did i just see BEAU walking around the block? i hear they’re from the MAGUIRE FAMILY and they’re a CHILD who is a CASHIER until they move out. they always look like they’re hiding something…but they’re so SELFLESS sometimes i wonder how they can be GUARDED. they certainly can’t be hiding HE HAS AN INTERNSHIP IN SAN FRANCISCO, can they?

okie doke so beau is biologically teddy’s full brother and half related to the maguire’s. and while their mom loved teddy when he was a baby, beau was always seen as a mistake to her (he’s got some major mommy issues people). his mom was around until he was 8 and then didn’t come back around until he was 18, when she tried to take teddy away from him. beau flipped and did not let that happen.

so anywayyy this soft boye is very, very smart but you wouldn’t know that unless someone else told you. he’s very private about that and has never in his life boasted about his academics. he kept to himself in school mostly and i’m pretty sure he was the salutatorian for his class.

buddy was all set to go to MIT on a pretty sizeable scholarship. but a few days before the deadline to commit he freaked and decided that he couldn’t do it. he stayed home to help take care of his brother and the rest of his family. very few people probably know about MIT and the scholarship just because he is such a private person.

as of right now he does odd jobs for neighbors and works as a grocery store cashier. but recently he started an internship with google at their san francisco office. he works with their software engineers and is learning more about code. he doesn’t want to tell his family that because this internship could lead to a job which would lead to him leaving them. he doesn’t want to think about that. 

he’s not quite sure but he thinks he’s bi. but honestly romantic relationships ?? he doesn’t know her. has probably kissed a total of two (2) people in his life and has never had a serious relationship. he’s always been “too busy” working and taking care of his family. because he’s the oldest boy he puts a lot on himself.

maxine “max” rivera (don’t call her maxine unless she’s in trouble) has been the apple of her father’s eye from the moment she was born. sure he would have preferred to have a son to pass the company down to, but he soon learned that max would work just as hard if not harder than a son would

on the complete opposite end of things max and her moth have never seen eye to eye. they got into arguments quite often and neither of them were ever willing to back off and apologize. so when mama rivera left max was like “mom who? i don’t remember having a mom”

but here’s where her new secret comes in. a few weeks ago she got an email from someone claiming to be their mom. she didn’t believe it at first but there have been multiple emails since then. she’s still having a hard time believing it but is working on coming to terms with it. she really does not want to tell her family about it yet.

but anyway she’s lived in her father’s shadow her entire life. she’s been fighting and fighting to try and get out of it bit it’s only worked a little. she takes her job very seriously and just a couple months ago was officially named vice president of rivera hotels

when it comes to her professional laugh max takes everything very seriously and thinks through every decision, but her personal life?? that’s kind of a mess. she’s definitely put a lot of people in her life on hold in order to focus on her career

let’s see hmmmm what else

she’s lived in halston her entire life and doesn’t really know anywhere else. she thinks she’ll have to move eventually but halson holds a special place in her heart

this spring she graduated from stanford with degrees in international business and economics. she’s always been relatively smart. never genius level but definitely above average

probably has a lot of people who either love or hate her with very little in between. she tries to be kind but it’s not always her first instinct. in order to get where she is now she’s had to make some sacrifices, which means hurting people that are important to her

merecedes was born to the fords in august & is the younger biological sister of bentley. ( get it..merecedes...bentley..ford..cars...kachow ). they also have an even youngest sibling. more of that later.

born in hawaii, all she ever knew was her city. with marine biologist parents, they often were out on the ocean & discovering all sorts of things.

CAR CRASH TW !! approximately 7 years ago, bentley & sadie were both in the crash that killed their parents along with their youngest sibling, and it frankly gives her a lot of anxiety to think about. even now, being in a car for long periods of time is Uncomfortable.

bentley became her legal guardian and she’s trying her best to make his life as easy as possible. though she doesn’t always succeed she does try because she loves him.

the move honestly..she wasn’t for it. she didn’t understand why he couldn’t find a similar job back in hawaii and why they had to move hundreds of miles away. it didn’t seem right and it didn’t seem fair, but it’s not like she was actually going to tell him that.

loosely based on jeremy heere ( crowd cheering ), sadie has always been nervous in new situations though she tries to keep a calm exterior. on the school social map she’s just a blip :/ but that’s all starting to change due to her falling in the wrong crowd. it’s a bad upgrade but she doesn’t want to be the loser sitting alone at the table by herself. it’s kind of valid

her secret is the anxiety over school and frankly? it’s bigger than she thinks. halston high is much bigger, louder & meaner than her old school, in turn making it hard to adjust. it’s starting to show in her personality at home / outside the schools brick walls and in her grades. despite having been there for a few weeks she still doesn’t feel comfortable.

loves movies, video games & being outdoors. not really an indoor person ( even when it’s raining )

DO NOT CALL HER MERECEDES IT’S SADIE ONLY

she’ll fuck up anyone who messes with her fam. like genuinely.
